First grow..bagseed

[chaosridden]

this was in "grow FAQ" but i moved on over here because it is no longer a question. Hope thats cool.

anyways heres my set up.
2x3x4 closet space.
6 cfl's totaling 12900 lumens. 3 at 6500k and 3 at 2700k (18/6 day/night)
my 3 ladies are in 4 gallon pots.
i only plan to make them 4ft tall( i would love more and if i think of a way i will sure as hell do it) due to my space restrictions.

NUTes..
first of all... I had to buy expert gardener. It is 10-6-4 or very close to that.
i know thats a no no but my area apparently isnt quite sure what gardening is. The only thing we had at any local store was either manure or this.

I have a foliage spray that has miracle grow in it (8-7-6) but only a very slight amount. It calls for 10-20 drops per quart, but i put 3 drops in a little less than a quart.

about 2 or 2 and a 1/2 weeks in..


Old setup..


the deformed at about 2 weeks..


The New setup ..



the deformed as of yesterday..


plant #1 as of this morning..


plant #2 as of thismorning(beggining week 4 i think)..


i do have a small question.. Just before i go to bed at night. they get droopy i suppose like they need watered. should i be adding a little bit of water if they are? pretty much every night this happens. I have been adding a splash of water before i go to bed but i dont want to over water.

well guys and gals.. how am i looking?
there is a fan blowing air in and one blowing out. Ill add that in my next update.

Spotless set-up and very healthy plants. I will be following this journal. +18 reps for luck!

Very nice indeed

Your plants are looking great! I heard or read that it's best to water your plants in the morning. But I guess a splash of water won't hurt them at night. Your grow set up looks good too. Do you got a fan on you plants?

[chaosridden]

thank you guys for the compliments.

The closet door slides from both sides. so i have it opened on both sides and the fan blows air in one side and out the other but i had to move the fan so i could take the pictures. I'll take a picture of how it looks from outside.

i have smaller leafs growing from where the nodes branch off...is this ok?
I'll put pics up when i get home tonight.

[chaosridden]

ok these are the leaves i was talking about..

are those leaves suppose to be there?

heres are some curly leaves.. what do you think?




i suppose the bent stem isnt a big deal?


but other than all that we're looking good...
lady#1 (taken before the curly leaves)


lady# 2


and lady#3 (the deformed)..shes picking up quite nicely..


im not sure about the curly leaves...I dont add nutes because the soil already has nutes. I water every 3 days...but the soil is still kinda moist on top so i didnt want to over water. hopefully they wont be curly when i wake up in the morn... time for a smoke friends.

[chaosridden]

something bad jsut happened. I was raising the lights and one fell on one of my ladies...I think the stalk broke... but not all the way. I couldnt see the break cuz it was a little under the soil. and i didnt want to dig to see if it was severe or not. i proped it back up and piled the soil around the stalk for support. do you think she will die? and is ther eanything i can do to help her recover?

[Harry Red]

Unintended super cropping.

If it's not broken too bad, there's a good chance it will be OK.

Good luck!!

it was droopy but now the leaves are pointing straight up almost...doesnt that mean they need water? i just watered yesterday..

[chaosridden]

well....shes not dead yet. thats a plus. They are really getting big. I need more P than N during flowering correct? I'll get some batteries for the camera and get some more pics up here.

as far as bugs. Every now and then I see a little thing flying around. just one or 2 i think. very very small little buggers. I dont see anything wrong with any of the plants. no nests or spots of any sorts. I spray under and on top of the leaves once or twice a day to keep them off or hopefully kill them.

what if I put a couple old cds under the plants? wouldnt that reflect the light back up? is this a good idea or bad?

[getsumkin]

looks like a nice start...they look good..keep up the good work..we will be wacthing..

[chaosridden]

ok here are some new pics.. the 11th will be 1 month from seedling.

lady #1




lady #2


lady #3 (the deformed)


how do they look?
anyone know if i have sativa or indica?

[getsumkin]

looks good...3 is kinda small but all looks fine with her...good luck should be fine..i think but im new to this to so

[Harry Red]

Everything looks good to me man, fwtw. Yes, generally more P than N during flowering.

The more light, the merrier and you're gonna need more for 4' plants. Be careful not to over water. Use a wet/dry cycle.
